Hadn't heard til this thread. Liked Ted. Not a lot of info yet... http://ted.nugent.mediafetcher.com/news/top_stories/jet-ski_musician_turks.php

Don't let my comments hold you back. Those comments were directed toward the newbs that would be riding your extra ski. I just can't see the logic in modifying a ski for practice. For riders that may never ride again. Those are the folks that need to ride the stock boat....learn to...

I'm glad that worked out for you. I still believe that the "need" for footholds only becomes an issue when the rider is ready to progress. Perhaps you were ready relatively quickly. Footholds enable the rider to manipulate the ski in ways that the novice rider is not ready for. I agree with...

If I was the judge....it would have been a tough call. Hitting the sand seemed to be the rule for all of the best riders. Gotta love all of them for ripping it in an inch of water! We all have our personal favorites. I like the surf comp. I also like sick tricks (air) , but this works regardless...

In reality.. Footholds are only an asset to an experienced rider. Newbs, God bless 'em, won't know the difference. Turning and standing up will be their main concern. Put the holds in the ski that you intend to use. Plenty of install advise is available here.. It can be a bit of a project if you...

Glad you made it! We met once at Daytona... you were mealing on an SBT cheeseburger at the time. lol. This site is responsable for letting a lot of us know that we were NOT the last stand-up riders on the planet. That's a good thing.

It was a cool thing for those who could not attend.

Is anyone streaming video this year? If so, please post the link! It's been done for the last few years by some generous freeriders. I don't think it's been an official part of the event.

I feel for all of you in the grip of the "polar vortex". Grew up in the northeast. I don't miss it. I can't really bitch, but it's here as well. 12 hour hard freeze tonight and tomorrow night. 24 at the beach. (colder inland) Water temp was 60 yesterday. (30 miles north of Daytona). But this...

Race fuel has it's place, I'm sure. Pump gas is easy. Easy matters when the waves don't tell you when they're coming. There are stations that sell it around here, but they're not exactly on-the-way to the spot. I have to take this opportunity to thank Brian at "Thrust" for shipping me the...

Such lousy weather lately. Hard to get motivated. Today is the last reasonably warm day for a while. Got the cases split and crank in a bag. Everything looks good; considering the abuse. Picking up a lot of parts in Daytona. Nice to do it without a deadline, but I am truly slow. I blame it on...

Done it all. Soaked with quick silver, wrapped in a tee-shirt and bagged. I can keep it in the house like this. However, I realize that I've made a grave, rookie mistake. The coupler is still on it. Lack of forethought about the seals. It would have been a lot easier to remove before taking...

Don't you get in trouble for throwing away either the twist-tie or the little, square plastic thing? I hate them both. But, given a choice, I prefer the plastic thing. There seems to be no industry standard for twist direction....which causes extreme grief when my glasses are not within reach...

That's what I'll do. I need to buy the vacant lot next door, build a garage with a climate control system, (and an apartment on top so I'll have a place to live during the bankruptcy proceedings..lol) BTW: HNY

That's the idea. But not vac-sealed. I guess a pretty heavy duty ziplock is needed.

I have no garage. My house is on stilts and I work beneath it. My motor is currently torn down to the cases. I worry about moisture etc... basic protection from the elements. Waiting for a nice day to split the cases and remove the crank. (the weather is not good whenever I have time) Cases and...

Ahhh... This is why the guy with the hazy question mark for an avatar has been posting so much! I'm slow. But I get it eventually. lol.

2013 was less than epic as far as waves are concerned here in northeast Florida. Rode plenty. But no great storm waves. It was the end of a multi year beating of my ski without really doing anything to it. 2014: The ski is currently under total rehab. Nothing fancy. Bore, port, glass, paint...

See you there.... you know that I need stuff! lol.

Nice! Great weather that day.
